Times Change People Don't - NightskyeB4Dawn - 07-02-2020 This is a Rod Sterling Movie that could have been written today. It is really worth watching. It is a little over an hour long, so grab the popcorn. Quote:A Town Has Turned to Dust RE: Times Change People Don't - kdog - 07-02-2020 Like the Mayans, and countless other cultures.

The tendency toward hate and killing is a drive that still runs very strong in our being. I watched my little great nephew become angry and frustrated with one his toys and he tore that thing to pieces. He was only two. That was not taught behavior. Anger and wrecking of destruction seem to be inherent. God knows I am not blaming anyone. I am an old broad, and it is still a constant battle for me to control my temper. I remember my poor mother fearing for me, when I was growing up, her mantra was, "Girl if you don't learn how to control that temper, you won't live to see 18, because you are going to kill someone or someone is going to kill you".

We lost him much too young. Stupid cigarette's.

He was indeed a genius with putting the human condition on the screen in a way that made it very easy to see.

He smoked his fair share of them, too. ) - : RE: Times Change People Don't - Wallfire - 07-03-2020 Scapegoating, some thing that every culture has, and I believe its something that is deep in the human soul. It provides a way of taking control of what is not understood and cannot be controlled. As soon as one group or person is scapegoated the next is already been lined up. Strange thing about scapegoating is once it starts it wont stop on its own because of fear, fear that im next. So it becomes a self sustaining system RE: Times Change People Don't - NightskyeB4Dawn - 07-03-2020 (07-03-2020, 09:31 AM)Wallfire Wrote: Scapegoating, some thing that every culture has, and I believe its something that is deep in the human soul.

From our youth, when first challenged with the acceptance of right and wrong, the battle begins. |
